Tough situation MO, about the only way I've gotten out of it is to either soak the fitting with some good penetrating oil then work it back and forth with a wrench while continuing to hose it down with the penetrating oil, or like you mentioned cut it out and splice around it.
well then send it to him He's going to want to use it with the line connected in place, so I hope the damn thing is small enough to use under the vehicle.

There is a wrench just for brake line fittings so the edges won't strip. Ask auto parts store

Besides, there's special compression fittings just for brake lines, no sense in trying to make a plumbing fitting work.

Dude don't come at me like that. Especially after your post saying a flaring press couldn't fit under his truck.


Guarandamtee mo could drove that truck to me with one brake lone pinched off to the rear.


I wouldn't recommend it on the front though

Have you tried fuel line wrenches?



I know you can't do a goddamn thing with a fuel line without it.

If it were me, I'd get a small pair of channel lock pliers, **** it up getting it loose and replace the fitting when it goes back together.

This, although they are technically just generally called "line" wrenches, as they work for specifically brake and fuel lines due to the nature of the fitting.

Don't **** with brake lines without the proper tools. Probably the one area where the Risk really isn't worth the reward, and 9 times out of 10 it leads to a massive headache.
